Book 20 Years of G20

Download or read book 20 Years of G20 written by Rajat Kathuria and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-05-04 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book discusses contemporary issues such as global financial architecture and regulatory practices, trade, investment and the multilateral process, the future of work, the role of technology for adaptation and mitigation of climate change, and financing infrastructure for sustainable development. With increasing global connectivity, events in one part of the world immediately affect or spread to the other parts. In this context, G20 has proved to be an effective forum, particularly after the Asian financial crises. Furthermore, over recent decades, G20 has been instrumental in managing financial crises and international conflicts by deploying global cooperation as a functional tool. As a body responding to crises, the G20 has played a central role in providing the political momentum for the strong international cooperation that ensured greater policy coherence and helped ease situations that could otherwise have been decidedly worse. The G20’s agendas have encompassed short-term but critical issues of economic recovery, the sovereign crisis of Europe, high unemployment and financial sector regulation. But since moderate stabilization in the global economic environment, the focus of the group has also embraced long-term areas of governance and development. For emerging economies, such as India, the G20 has been an important platform framework to promote an inclusive global economic architecture that seeks to achieve equitable outcomes. This book reviews the past 20 years of the G20, since it was conceptualized as a replacement for the G-7. While issues such as global financial order have been a constant area of discussion, one of the failures has been not recognizing and acknowledging the importance of issues like trade, climate change and future of work. Featuring academic papers by experts in the area, this book provides a platform for the necessary discourse on these issues.

Book Global Cooperation and G20

Download or read book Global Cooperation and G20 written by Saon Ray and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-03-01 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on one of the two G20 tracks, the finance track. It examines the evolution of the finance track in G20, the organizational structure of the finance track, and the role of international organizations in reforming the financial architecture. It discusses how the agenda is formed and driven by the political economy of the host country as well as the imperative of the time. It also documents the finance track themes taken up by different G20 presidencies over the years. Some of the common threads between the G20 emerging economies’ presidencies in terms of the finance track themes that the G20 leaders have considered include financial sector regulation and reform, reform of international financial institutions, global growth and macroeconomic policies, international taxation, and financial inclusion. The book is an excellent resource for the researchers of international economics as well as for policymakers.

Book Global Economic Cooperation

Download or read book Global Economic Cooperation written by Rajat Kathuria and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-11-23 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses issues such as global financial crisis and global governance, food security, energy sustainability, the global financial system, trade and protectionism, and growth and employment. Since the outbreak of the financial as well as national debt crises in the Euro zone, the focus of the G20 has shifted back to addressing short-term issues. These issues range from the dynamic effects of global imbalances and the appropriate degree of financial sector regulation to questions of austerity versus growth and the lack of a comprehensive framework for managing the international monetary system. A further issue is the relevance of the G20 agenda for emerging market economies. Global economic recovery still remains fragile and downside risks to global growth remain. Additionally, much of the agenda of the Seoul Development Consensus for shared growth launched in 2010 has yet to be fulfilled. A key discussion point in the book, therefore, is how to make a tangible and significant difference in peoples’ lives by implementing an agenda of inclusive growth.​

This book was released on 2013-12-09 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the outbreak of the global financial crisis, 2008, the G20 was widely acknowledged as helping prevent an even more serious decline in the global economy. It helped to calm the panic in financial markets and articulate a set of possible policy options to restore global stability and growth. However, as the dual-track recovery set in, policy options for advanced economies and EMEs diverged. Within this context, this book will explore the scope for cooperation amongst the G20 and the diverging challenges and the intricate interconnectedness of policy options between advanced economies and the EMEs within the G20.

Book G20 Since the Global Crisis

Download or read book G20 Since the Global Crisis written by Jonathan Luckhurst and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-04-21 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyzes the Group of Twenty (G20) since the 2008 financial crisis. The latter event undermined conventional wisdom and governance norms, constituting a more contested international economic regime. G20 leaders sought a cooperative response to the 2008 crisis through the forum, aware of their interdependence and the growing economic importance of key developing states. They agreed to new norms of financial governance based on macroprudential regulation, the Basel III Accords, and enhanced multilateral cooperation. They prioritized G20 cooperation for achieving international economic stability and growth. Differences exist over causes and effects of the crisis, including on the merits of economic austerity or fiscal stimulus strategies; on responsibility for and solutions to international economic imbalances; and concerns about monetary policies and “currency wars”. Despite claims from skeptics that G20 cooperation is declining, this book argues its importance for international relations and as a hub of global governance networks.

Book How the Group of 20 Works

Download or read book How the Group of 20 Works written by Corona Brezina and published by The Rosen Publishing Group, Inc. This book was released on 2012-07-01 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the midst --and in the troubled wake--of the Great Recession, we have witnessed an extraordinary and unprecedented global cooperation among nations committed to collectively discussing, debating, and instituting the best possible economic measures that would restore worldwide growth and prosperity. Through international dialogue, negotiations, and old-fashioned arm-twisting and diplomatic brinksmanship, vulnerable and debt-ridden countries, mostly in Europe, were bailed out and forced to accept austerity spending measures. One of the major players in this economic drama was the Group of 20, an international council of the world's leading industrialized and emerging economies. Initially formed to give greater voice and representation to emerging economies and developing nations and to encourage growth, development, and prosperity worldwide, the Group of 20 evolved during the Great Recession into a fleet-footed, rapid-response crisis management council, seeking ways to craft a coordinated and effective response to the deepening economic turmoil. Readers will follow as this book charts the evolution against the historic backdrop of the Great Recession, while also discussing earlier antecedents of the Group of 20, its organization, membership, and leadership, its membership criteria, its organizational philosophy, mandate, and authority, and its greatest debates, controversies, failures, and successes. Readers discover the surprisingly stirring account of a leadership council adapting to confront a global crisis of historic proportions and an inspiring example of the power of many and the wisdom of the group to tackle and solve even the most vexing of problems. Readers are encouraged to think and engage further with 10 Great Questions to Ask an Economics/Finance teacher and Myths & Facts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Brookings Institution Press and Korean Development Institute publication Global Leadership in Transition calls for innovations that would "institutionalize" or consolidate the G20, helping to make it the global economy's steering committee. The emergence of the G20 as the world's premier forum for international economic cooperation presents an opportunity to improve economic summitry and make global leadership more responsive and effective, a major improvement over the G8 era. "Key contributors to this volume were well ahead of their time in advocating summit meetings of G20 leaders. In this book, they now offer a rich smorgasbord of creative ideas for transforming the G20 from a crisis-management committee to a steering group for the international system that deserves the attention of those who wish to shape the future of global governance."—C.

Book The G20  Development and the UN Agenda 2030

Download or read book The G20 Development and the UN Agenda 2030 written by Dries Lesage and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-12-31 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a unique assessment of the G20’s development agenda and its potential to be an impactful actor in the global architecture of development cooperation. Representing two-thirds of the world population, 85 percent of economic output, 75 percent of global trade, and 80 percent of carbon dioxide emissions, the G20 embodies an overwhelming concentration of economic and political power, enhanced through regular meetings of heads of state and government. This position allows it the opportunity to play a significant role in ongoing multilateral policy processes, but also to further undermine universal development governance at the UN, already challenged by the Bretton Woods institutions, OECD and G8. Providing context and a history of the G20’s involvement in development governance, expert international contributors consider the outcome of major conferences, the perspectives of China, India, and the EU, the shift away from positions held by Western countries and the role of civil society. They also offer in-depth analysis of the G20’s engagement with issues concerning infrastructure, food and agriculture, taxation, macro-economic policy and the Sustainable Development Goals. The book will be of interest to scholars and students of development, international organisations and global governance.

This book was released on 2022-09-13 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book aims to explore and contextualize G20 rising powers’ increasing role in international development from a comprehensive and multidimensional perspective. This book will scrutinize the G20 rising powers’ evolving role as international development actors around three research questions: 1) How do we contextualize and locate G20 rising powers as emerging actors in international development? 2) What are the main contributions, trends and limits of G20 rising powers in South-South Cooperation? 3) Does G20 rising powers’ active involvement in international development support their foreign policy objectives and challenge the international development order? Based on these three, interrelated research questions, this cluster of chapters is structured as follows: The first part, elaborated under the first research question, focuses on the historical development and current dynamics of (G20) rising powers’ evolving actorness in international development to assess their main motivations, ambitions and instruments. The second part examines the main contributions, trends and limits of G20 rising powers in South-South Cooperation. The third part delves into an assessment of the linkage between G20 rising powers’ active involvement in international development and their foreign policies.
